Tt aac Page Two GRAND JURY WHITEWASHES CROWE’S GANG Fails to Solve Murder of McSwiggin The special grand jury that was impanelled to investigate the murder of William H. McSwiggin, assistant state’s attorney, in company with a carload of gunmen and gangsters en- gaged in the business of beer running failed ‘to report on the facts of the slaying but indulged in a wholesale whitewashing of States Attorney Robert E. Crowe's office. Strong critici from Coroner Oscar Wolfe, Harry Eugene Kelly, head of the Union League Club, and numerous other groups of officials and citizens was directed against Crowe’s office at the time of the murders, Demands were made for a special grand jury with a special prosecutor to investi- gate the affair. In order to avert in- vestigation of his own office and the Presence of his assistant prosecutor in company with known gunmen that he, himself, has pretended to #os- ecute for murder a few months before, Crowe and Attorney Oscar Carlstrom hastened te improvise a grand jury in order that they could keep the pres- entation of evidence in their own hands. The result was what was anticipated from the first—no solution of the murders and a complete whitewash of the states’ attorney office and a con- demnation of those who endeavored to secure an investigation of Crowe’s of- fice and his notorious political machine which, it is charged, main- tains its power thru its alliance with gunmen and beer runners. Afraid to Touch Gunmen. Because of this alliance it was not possible for a thoro-going investiga- tion and as the special grand jury passed out of existence it issued the statement that a conspiracy of silence, among gangsters and intimidation of witnesses, make it almost impossfble to solve gang murders, Praise for Crowe for the efficiency and energy with which he conducts his office, was also contained in the report. Following this, the report takes a slap at Harry Bugene Kelly, president of the Union League Club, who charged following the murder of McSwiggin that Crowe was not competent to con- duct the special grand jury quiz, After naming Kelly and Coroner Oscar Wolfe as obstructionists, the report “ys: Assails “Reformer.” Reform organizations, self-appoint- ed, self-styled reformers, organized apparently for the purpose of securing satisfactory remuneration for indivi- duals, and often actuated by political Motives, are a detriment and fot a help. Blaming the crime situation in gen- eral and gang murders im particular, to prohibition, the report says: Blames Public. “It cannot be denied that there has been a lack of acceptance by the pub- Me of the Volstead act, A large num- ber of persons have not accepted the statute as a law of fhe land and are willing to pay and do pay exorbitant prices for intoxicating liquors, which creates a ficld of activity and profit unheard of in former times, “This illegal traffic, being criminal and without legal foundation, brings about internecine warfare between operating gangs who invade each others territory, with the result that they commit murder to carry on their iflegal commerce.” “Colvin To Stay’—Len Small, KANKAKEE, Ill., June 6. — “Will Colvin has not resigned. So far as I know ‘he will not resign. The situation is just as it has been.” This is the statement made by Gov. Len Small at his home in answer to reports that Colvin, head of the state board of pardons and paroles, either would resign or be removed by the governor as the result of grand jury investigations into the alleged “pardon mill” in INinols.

WORKERS FIGHT THES CLAIMS OF MONARCHISTS AGAINST THE REPUBLIC Twenty-two former ruling houses of Germany, overthrown in 1918, and comprising the former kaiser and about 150 kings, dukes, princes and princesses, filed claims for the re- turn of the following properties, seized during the revolution: 1. Landed estates and forests, 1,200,000 acres, value $250,000,000, 2, Castles, $125,000,000, 3. Real estate, industrial plants, theaters, museums and other proper- ties, about 100 individual pieces, $50,000,000, 4. Art works, gold and silver, $125,000,000, 5. Annuities, capital values, $25,- 000,000. 6. Cash, $75,000,000. Total, $650,000,000. Seven houses, dethroned before the war, some by Napoleon I, or which are merely related to other ruling houses, demand annuities to the annual total of $360,000. Eleven princely houses of German nationality, which had sovereign rights up to the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire in 1803, de- mand annuities to the annual total of $92,000, Two dozen princes, dukes, barons, counts, Knights and some plain citizens who merely married mem- bers of such families demand annu- ities for relinquishing “vested rights” which their families former- ly possessed from feudal times, in the e of rights to collect bridge tolls, “Jew tolls, local customs duties, hunting taxes, head taxes on strangers and for compensation for the liberation of serfs, including the felinquishment to the rights’ to the serf's bridal night, to the annual total of $50,000. Communists and Fascisti in Germany Gird for Struggle (Continued from page 1) for children’s homes and educational institutions.” Communists Initiate Move. The initiative for the dispossession of the royal family, following on the demands of the kaiser and his family for a return of the vast estates, was taken by the Communists. The soctal- ists were forced by circumstances to join with the Communists in this move, Government Rejects Bill. The government and the reichstag, in which the bourgeois parties have the majority, rejected the bill, signed by 12,500,000 German workers and farmers, as an “infringement on priv- ate property.” When the reichstag refused to ac- cede to the demand to confiscate the vast estates of the royal family, the bill automatically went to a nation- wide referendum. For the bill to pass in the nation-wide referendum it will be necessary, according to the German constitution, to get a majority of the total registered vote. The total regis- tered vote is 40,000,000. The bill will pass if 20,000,000 voters declare them- selves favoring the measure, Fascisti Seek Monarchy. Fascisti demonstrations held in Germany call for the return of the Monarchy. The slogans used at their demonstrations. are: “With God, for King and Fatherland, against Bolshe- vism and Bribery,” and the “Sanctity of Private Property.” Workers’ and Farmers’ Rule. The socialists call for the perpetua- tion of the republic. The Communists point out that this is a step toward the workers’ and farmers’ govern- ment. Intimidation and terrorization will be used at the polls by fascists in an attempt to keep voters from entering the polls. Bourgeois Boycott Elections. The bourgeois parties have called on their members to boycott the elec- tions. They declare abstention from voting is a vote against the bill, All of those that go to the polls will be those voting for the bill they declare. In the industrial cities spies are to be stationed at the polling places by the bosses in an attempt to weed out the “unfaithful ones,” e Reichsrat Compromise. The reichsrat, German senate, has drawn up a compromise bill which they will seek to put over if the con- fiscation bill is defeated. This com- promise proposal will cut down the amounts demanded by the royal family, This compromise is offered at this time in an attempt to defeat the referendum. The churches are on the side of the monarchists and are urging their congregations to boycott the referendum, Workers Determined to Win, Widespread agitation is being carried on by the workers to get out the largest vote possible for the refer- endum. If the law passes it is de- clared that President von Hindenburg will refuse to sign the measure, The government it is stated will also refuse to carry out the law, Parlia- ment will be dissolved and new elec- tions may be held. The fascisti are preparing to take advantage of such a situation by cn armed coup and establish @ dicta‘orship, Class con. scious workers ure determined to prevent the ascension of the fascisti to power, mn F.-L, CAMPAIGN IN MINNESOTA Davis Forces Attempt to Split Ranks (Continued trom page 1) is being supported by many labor of- ficials of the Twin Cities, Rank and File For Magnus. The rank and file however, is sup- porting Magnus and in the farmer- labor clubs—the basic units of the as- sociation—the lines are clearly drawn. The Minneapolis and St. Paul Cen- tral Labor Councils have endorsed neither Davis nor Johnson, They are following the ancient policy of remain- ing “neutral” altho actually this amounts to support of Davis or what is worse—support of Mayor Leach of Minneapolis, candidate in the repub- lican primaries against Governor Christensen, Arch-Reactionarles For Leach. The followers of Paul Smith, A, F. of L. organizer, sent into this terri- tory by the regime of the late Presi- dent Gompers to combat the “red men- ace,” either ate openly or covertly supporting Leach, The line-up as it appear from views expressed by active supporters of Mag- nus is as follows: Cramer, editor of the Minneapolis Labor Review, is supporting Leach; Bennett, business agent of the Paint- ers’ Union, is supporting Leach; the Plumbers’ Union business agent is supporting Leach; Sinton, business agent of the Cooks’ and Waiters’ Union, is supporting Leach, The Davis Support. Weir, of the Stage Employes’ Union and business agent of the Minneapolis Central Labor Council, is supporting Davis. Christian, business agent of the Building Trades Council, is support- ing Davis; Nelson, former business agent of the Carpenters’ Union, is supporting Davis; Miller, of the Elec- trical Workers’ Union, is supporting Davis. Richard Wiggin, assistant city at- torney and influential member of the City and County Employes’ Union, is supporting Davis; Mallon, former business agent of the Building Trades Council and now one of the county commissioners, is supporting Davis. Lynn Thompson, former organizer of the Central Labor Counicl, elected county commissioner on the farmer: labor ticket two years ago, is cam- paign manager for Davis. Floyd Olson, farmer-labor candidate for governor two years ago and at present county attorney, has made no public statement so far and ds said to be on the fence waitingsfor further developments. Mahoney For Magnus, William Mahoney, editor of the St. Paul Trade Union Advocate, is sup- porting Magnus 100 per cent. So is Frank Starkey, of the Central Labor Council, who is now state secretary of the farmer-labor association. G. W. Alexander, financial secretary of the Minneapolis Hlectrical Workers’ Union, is supporting Magnus Johnson; Walter Frank, business agent of the Lathers’ Union, is supporting Magnus. Louis Engstrom, state chairman of the Farmer-Labor Association, is sup- porting Magnus; I. G, Scott, of the Plasterers’ Union and labor alderman, is supporting Magnus, From the above it is plain that the campaign has divided the Twin City labor movement into right, left and center. The beginnings of a revolt against the sabotage of the farmer- labor ticket are apparent. The Farmer and Labor Press. As to the outcome of the primary fight, in which the bitterness is grow- ing daily, it is dificult to speak de- finitely. Magnus Johnson will get strong support from the farmers and from the union membership in the Twin Cities, but the Davis machine is flooding the state with so-called of- ficia? organs of the completely defunct non-partisan league whose fake con- vention gave him the endorsement which constitutes his sole excuse for entering the race after his crushing defeat in the Parmer-Labor Associa- tion convention, ? In addition to the support already mentioned, the bona fide farmer-labor ticket is supported by Victor Lawson's Paper published at Willmar, the st. Louis Cougty Independent, the Milaca Times, the Farmer-Labor Advocate published in St, Paul and other smaller sheets. Richard Wiggin, a keen observer of Minnesota political campaigns, altho supporting Davis, stated in private conversations yesterday that “I have a hunch that Magnus will get the nomination,” Senate Committee Upholds Coolidge Volstead Act Order A subcommittee of five lawyers in its report to the senate judiciary com- mittee declared that the action of President Coolidge inducting munici- pal, county and state law enforcement agencies into the federal prohibition service was constitutional and within legal bounds, but was an “unwise and improper” move, The vote on sub mitting’this report was 4 to 1, seman, THE DAILY eS no NEES cn cs A as A It in inc Slat vA ed ct SAME DE SEE tN tl er O_O SST pt SE Be a RR A A AL A A } WORKER Iron League Bosses Hope to Force Open Shop Wedge in Union From indications, the Iron League, an association of contractors devoted to breaking the Jron Workers’ Union if possible, has decided to make war on the Chicago union of Structural Iron Workers and have broken off negotiations with the union represent- atives after withdrawing a proposal to increase wages from 1.37% cents an hour to $1.50 after October 1. Wish To Breaks Union, The strike continues against Iron League jobs, tieing up the bulk of heavy construction work in Chicago, although the union asserts that 1,600 union men are working on jobs held by other contractors than those of the Iron League. The Iron League has long wished to find an excuse for trying to destroy the union in the Chicago district. The has officially offeredto help the Iron League, by furnishing” Scabs. Both Meet Today. That the bosses intend to at least make a show of fight is seen in the meeting scheduled today by the struc- tural iron contractors who are mem- bers of the league, to he followed by a general meeting of all members of the league at the Hotel Sherman. The union members are scheduled to meet tonight at Musicians’ Hall, 175 West Washington. If any offer is made by the league, the union will consider it tonight. The open shoppers aro known to be anxious to undermine the union by insisting on removal of the clause providing for the withdrawal of union men from new jobs where non-union men are hired who refuse to join the union, FRANCE STILL AT WAR WITH MOOR TRIBES Natives Well Armed and Holding Ground PARIS, June 6—Although Abd-el Krim has surrendered and the Riff is supposed to be “pacified,” France still has several little Wars on its hands with native tribes who refuse to yield to imperialist demands and give up their independence. The Atlas mountains are full of forces of hostile natives armed with modern rifles and in no mood to be coaxed into surrender, A humorous phase @} this situation is the attempt of the! to hin- der native rebellion by. buying rifles from the tribesmen at a much higer price than the natives paid for them. The tribesmen pay about $64 for a rifle, then sell it to the French for $80 or wore. While the French think thie is the way to stop revolts, the na- tives figure it a good way to finance the purchase of more rifles. ‘There are seven or eight tribes with Several thousand each of well-armed warriors who have no intention of let- ting the French enter their territory. Detective Agency Seeks to Collect From Steel Company GIRARD, O., June 6.—The Gross De- tective Agency has instituted a suit for $1,000,000 against the Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company to collect money due the spy agency from the company.

ENGDAHL. i ee Hearst press treats its read- ers to another scare about the Japanese menace to the United States. New revelations regarding the preparations being made by the Nipponese for the impending war ‘with this country are presented with all possible hysterical accom- paniment. Yet i is difficult to see where the jingo, Hearst, presents anything not already known to the student of re- lations between capitalist nations in the present imperialist era. “* * It is declared that Japan plans the exploitation of the vast. natural resources of Korea (Chosen) and Manchuria, the great province of North China, and the production of immense quantities of essential ma- terials of war—iron, coal, oil and foodstuffs. It is claimed that Ja- pan suffers a huge deficiency in these war materials at present. It is declared that Japan plans the construction of a comprehen- sive system of railroads thru Man- churia and Korea to transport these materials to the shores of Korea Straits and the Sea of Japan, and the development of harbors con- nected with these railroads. It is declared that preparations are being made for the powerful defense of Korea Straits and the Sea of Japan to guarantee saftey of transport for war materials across these waters to Japan in time of hostilities. It is declared that Japan seeks the adoption of @ friendly policy by Japan toward China and avoidance ‘of hostile action against the Chi nese in order to facilitate the Jap- anese exploitation program, a pf. 2 It is not known that Japan is making a secret of any of these allegations. Japan, just like the United States, does everything pos- sible to exploit every possible na- tural resource that can be brought under its influence. The United States government has an elaborate program, that is being carried out in detail. Hearst knows this. He favors it. His so-called exposure of similar Japanese preparations is merely an effort to stimulate the American war pro ’ The railroad situation in Man- churia is not new. There has been an endless striiggle over the Chi- nese Eastern Railroad, which is now operated jointly by the Chinese end the Soviet Union. Chang Tso Lin, the Japanese catspaw in Man- churia, recently tried to seize this very important railroad that short- ens the distance from western Si- beria to the red Soviet port of Viadivostok. But he failed in the effort. It is only natural that Jap- an should seek to develop its con- trol over an increased network of transportation in Manchuria and Korea. The same is true of trans- portation by water. Imperialist Japan is as much interested in the protection of the Korean Straits as the United States is to safeguard the Panama Canal and transform the Hawaiian Islends into an “im pregnable fortress.” The Hearst expose, however, be- comes extremely ridiculous when it talks of Japan seeking the adoption of a friendly attitude toward China. This is intended to infer that the Tokio imperialists are capable of friendship toward the Chinese peo- ple. The truth is that the Japanese government, in common With all im- perialist nations, is the bitter foe of the Chinese people. Japa supports the bandit war lord of Manchuria, Chang Tso Lin,-just as the United States and Great Britain give their aid to Wu Pei Fu, who throws in his fortunes with Chang when the Kuo- minchun (National Revolutionary Army) threatens to exterminate them both. Just as all the imperialist powers united in an effort to deliver a fatal blow to Soviet rule in Siberia, so these international bandits now ‘unite in their common attack on the revolutionary power of the Chinese workers and peasants. The threatening war between the United States and Japan, for control of the Pacific, can only be looked upon as an opportunity for the Chi- nese maéses (and the workers of all countries affected) to consolidate their power. It would give China a much needed breathing spell, dur- ing which it would be possible to develop a strongly centralized revo- lutionary government for the whole dation, eee The Trade Union Council of New South Wales, Australia, hag called & conference for July of labor rep- Tesentatives from nations bordering the Pacific to. discuss this impending war. The Australians are breaking thiu their fsolation from the Astatic peoples, that resulted from the in- tensive campaign to maintain a “white Australia.” Now the van- guard of: Australian labor is anx- ious and eager to develop the solid- arity of workers of all colors, yellow, brown and white, who suffer under imperiali! It is an encouraging sign. Ho puns is the yellow worker of China, or the brown worker of Japan, looked upon as an inferior being ‘by ‘his enlightened Australian ‘brother. Rther is he considered a comrade in arms against the capi- talist rulers. American labor is still saturated, io @very great extent, with the jingo hysteria that Hearst and his kind spread over the land. It still lookg upon oriental labor as some- thing beneath its serious attention, except to exclude it from this con- try. The prejudice will be gradually wiped away, however, with the de- velopment of the class solidarity of labor: within the borders of this na- tion. That class solidarity will grow as American labor decides it must give no support to U. S. imperialist ambition in the Pacific, that it must unite with all Pacifie labor for the ending of imperialist rule, YANKEE'S PLAN FOR CONQUEST Interventionist May Be Forced to Get Out’ SHANGHAI, June 6.—The Chinese newspapers and nationalist organiza- tions are demanding the deportation from China of an American imperialist scribe, Rodney Gilbert, who in a re- cent book attacks the principle of Chinese independence as a ridiculous idea, and the Chinese as fit only for being the humble subjects of foreign exploiters. that know what is better for Chinese than do the Chinese them- selves. Foreigners should rvle China, says Gilbert in the book, Which is entitled “What's Wrong With China.” Gilbert quite frankly says that foreign im- perialists should intervene with armed force to compel Chinese to accept the partition of Chinese among imperialjst powers, He adds that this should have been done fifty years ago and that America should do it now.

Organization Drive ALEM, Mass., June 6—(FP)— Naumkeag Mill workers of Salem, Mass., are responsible for @ new or- ganization tactic in the United Tex- tile Workers. Through their union and its head, J. P, O'Connell, they have had the U. T W. concentrate or- ganization efforts in cotton sheeting mills Several organizers are now devot- ing their time to this job. The nearly 100 per cent organized group in Naumkeag, one of New England's oldest mills (established 1839), made its re-entry into the U. T. W. after a period of affiliation with the indepen- dent American Federation of Textile Operatives, conditional upon this or- ganization campaign, ; Naumkeag Mill workers are more fortunate than most of their fellow workers in the textile industry. Of the 2,000 in this sheeting mill, 1,600 women and 500 men are in the union. They have steady work ,the year round, except for the annual two- weeks shut-down termed their “vaca- tion,” They do not have high wages but their average annual earnings are well above those of other cotton textile workers. Naumkeag workers have been the only ones, probably, to successfully resist wage cuts from 1923 on. ‘The Salem textile union was first in the U. T, W. but switched to the A. FP, T. O, for a number of years. Last December the local went back into the U T. W., affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, Naumkeag is the only textile mill in Salem. Three of the ten chief sheeting mills are in the southern states, but most of the bleaching and finishing (including hemming and packing for retail trade) is done in MACHINISTS IN STRIKE VOTE TO RAISE WAGE Automatic Co.

The machinists are de- termined to force the company to sign the agreement and pay the small in- crease to the men. The strike against the American Oven Machine company still continues in spite of Judge Dennis Sullivan's 2- minute decision granting an injunction asked for by the company. The labor movement of Chicago must come to the assistance of the machinists in this cage as this is one of the most outrageous decision ever handed down by this notorious anti-labor judge. Coolidge Senator Has Power of Life or Death Over Sacco- Vanzetti (Continued from page 1) sue, He said he was not “submitting to an intreview,” and hence his exact language will not be quoted. But he is not interested in the fate of Sacco and Vanzettl. He wants the outside public—especially the workers who have votes—to believe that nobody is interested in Sacco and Vanzetti un- less it be a few labor people, and a few Italians. While Butler seldom talks in pub- Ne about anything, it was quite clei that he wanted least of all to talk of the fate of these two radfeals who had ~ stirred up revolt among the mill hands in Massachusetts, The courts—elected or appointed by his machine, and un- der the approving eye of Butlet’s fel- low mill owners—had found no flaw in the conviction, That was all he saw in it. No racial prejudice and no class prejudice. Just a conviction, Butler Can Order Life or Death. If the governor wants to pardon Sacco and Vanzetti, or to commute their sentences, he can do so. When the courts of Massachusetts are thru with a case, the governor and his council may take it up for possible clemency. The actual decision is made by the governor. Life and death are in his hands. Butler is sure on that score. Butler did not say to The Federated Press that the political life and death of the governor are in the hands of the Butler machine. He is intelligent enough to assume that that fact is understood. If the governor acts in this case, he will do so with knowl- edge of Butler’s judgment as to how his action will affect Butler's chance of election next fall. Butler can be trusted to see to that. CARROLL PLANS TO APPEAL 10 SUPERIOR COUR NEW YORK, June 6.—Earl Carroll, Broadway theatrical magnate, will not go to Atlanta to serve his jail sen- tence until some time around next Christmas, if then, is the opinion of many lawyers. Carroll was sentenced to one year and one day in prison and fined $2,000 by Federal Judge Goddard for perjury before the federal grand jury which investigated the serving of liquor at Carroll's lawyer will take the pro- ducer’s appeal to the circuit court at the beginning of its term in October, It is regarded as likely that when the October term begins press of business will be so heavy that Carroll’s case will not ‘be reached until November. ‘Then there is the customary lapse of about a month between argument and the decision of the court. Further legal technicalities may be interposed that would mean the ease would not be finally settled until about Christ. mas, 600,000 Mexicans Enter U, 8, |
